United-Guardian Reports Record Six Month Financial Results
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Aug. 11, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- United-Guardian, Inc. (NASDAQ:UG) reported today that sales for the second quarter of 2015 increased by 38% over the same period last year, resulting in a 68% increase in net income compared with the second quarter of 2014. Sales for the quarter increased from $2,980,136 in 2014 to $4,124,091 this year, and net income increased from $901,273 ($0.20 per share) in 2014 to $1,510,511 ($0.33 per share) this year, resulting in the strongest second quarter in the company's history. For the first six months of 2015 sales increased 22% from $6,939,628 in 2014 to $8,496,484 this year, and net income increased 33% from $2,237,026 ($0.49 per share) to $2,971,021 ($0.65 per share), both new company records.
Ken Globus, President of United-Guardian, stated, "We are very pleased to report that our sales and earnings for the first half of 2015 have both reached new highs, due primarily to the significant increase in sales of our products in China. After having lost a significant customer for one of our products last year, we have now more than made up for the loss of that business with the increased demand for our products in China, which is coming from multiple customers. The current projection of our marketing partner is for sales of our products in China to remain strong for the third quarter, and we are optimistic that these sales will continue to grow. To supplement the significant inroads we have made into the personal care market in China we are continuing our efforts to develop new products for both the personal care and medical markets, and we are looking forward to the continued expansion of our global sales of these products."
United-Guardian is a manufacturer of cosmetic ingredients, personal and health care products, pharmaceuticals, and specialty industrial products.
